What should be paid attention to oil tanker truck in the summer ?

The old driver often said that the tanker is a three-point repair and seven-point maintenance. This kind of maintenance is especially important in the summer. In the summer, it is necessary to focus on preventing accidents such as spontaneous combustion, puncture, and "potping" of tank cars. What should be done to prevent these accidents from happening?

There are many reasons for spontaneous combustion of tank cars. The general situation is caused by damage to circuits, oil circuits and modified parts of automobiles. The most common cause of spontaneous combustion in tank cars is the short circuit of the wires, which has a probability of more than 60%.
The cause of the short circuit of the wire may be the aging of the line caused by the hot weather; it may also be the various electronic equipment assembled by the tanker driver to the tanker, which increases the circuit load of the tanker.
For the various reasons of tanker self-ignition, the most basic precaution is to regularly check the engine, circuit and oil circuit to see if there are signs of aging or oil leakage.

Once the insulation rubber surface of the line surface is found to be cracked, cracked, aged or even seriously damaged, it should be repaired as soon as possible. Regularly clean dust and grease in the engine compartment and, if necessary, go to the repair shop for professional cleaning.

It is worth noting that drivers of hazardous chemicals tankers should always check the safety valve. If there is an insensitivity, it should be replaced in time. At the same time, the owner should minimize the installation or modification, so as not to increase the burden on the sub-line. The modified tank truck, the car mainly carries out all-round inspections on the lights and effects.

Do not place flammable objects such as lighters, perfumes, air fresheners, etc. under high temperature exposure for a long time, avoiding physical explosion caused by expansion and then causing spontaneous combustion; after driving for a long time, the owner should properly let the tanker rest in a cool place to avoid Overloaded.

In addition, the tanker must be equipped with a fire extinguisher, just in case. In addition, the car mainly remembers to buy a self-inflation insurance for the vehicle to reduce the loss caused by spontaneous combustion of the tanker.

Explosion proof tire

In the summer, some car owners may take measures to reduce the tire pressure to avoid the risk of puncture. In fact, this method is not good. Once the tire pressure is too low, the tire is rubbed for a long time, and the sidewall of the tire is easily bent and broken, which is more likely to cause a puncture.
Therefore, maintaining the normal tire pressure of the tires in summer is the key to preventing the puncture of the tanker. Regular measurement of tire pressure can effectively reduce the occurrence of puncture. In addition, the tanker driver can also reduce the chance of puncture by injecting an inert gas, nitrogen, into the tire.
The tanker driver should avoid the vehicle running at high speed for a long time. Generally, after one or two hours of continuous driving, the vehicle should be stopped to cool the tire. When the tire is cooled, let it cool down spontaneously, and never pour cold water on the tire.

In long-distance, high-speed driving, you should try to avoid sudden acceleration and sudden braking. Because of this, the amount of tire content will be reduced, which will aggravate the wear of the tire and increase the instantaneous pressure, thereby causing a puncture. Therefore, car owners should develop a good habit of driving at medium speed during long-distance and high-speed driving.

The situation that the tanker is overloaded is often encountered by us. If this is done, the load on the vehicle will exceed the load and cause a puncture. Therefore, it is also very important for the tanker driver to drive as required.

Anti-"cooking"

“Opening the pot” means that the temperature of the tank of the tanker reaches the boiling point. Once the tanker is “opened”, the driver of the tanker should hurry to find a cool place to stop the cooling, let the engine run at an idle speed, and open the hood to speed up the heat dissipation. When the temperature drops, add enough water to the tank.
In normal times, tanker drivers should also check the cooling system frequently and see if the tank is short of water. Always pay attention to the indicated readings of the water temperature gauge when driving long distances or when driving for a long time. In addition, the tanker driver can also prevent the tank from “opening the pot” by supplementing the antifreeze.
